Hi, I'm Melina, I was born in Lübeck in 1980 and I take photos because I want to stop time. Time passes far too quickly for me and everything I can capture with my camera stays a little longer forever. I studied visual communication at the HfbK Hamburg, but to be honest, I learned (almost) everything I can do from the famous doing in the years that followed. Today I work as a freelance photographer in editorial and I love it because I get to meet so many different people through it, and so many realities of life that I would probably never get to experience otherwise. I think if I had to name a hobby, it would be humans. We are actually strange animals, and I love observing them. Since April 2020, I've also been running the Hamburg chapter of the female photoclub and am committed to improving the visibility of women in photography. I am also a founding member of the female photoclub e.V. and was active as a board member for three years. That was a great and instructive time.
I am represented by the agency laif.
I live in Hamburg with my daughter and we spend as much time as possible in our garden by the Dove Elbe. I like to crawl through the bushes in the dark and flash flowers or put tiger snails on my hand. Just what you do as a photographer in the big city <3
